all things are possible with god

From Interior Designer to Fashion Designer

Hi, I’m Jan Wolbrecht, the creator of Incognito Wear IX®. I’m a Georgian native and grew up in a family who love horses. In a family of all girls, I was the hands-on daughter helping my dad fix things around the barn or whatever the horses destroyed.

I guess it’s true that life comes full circle.

I enjoyed helping my dad fix things, so it seemed natural to want to help others, in particular women, to make on body carry of self-defense tools easier.

I think you’d call me an outside-the-box “creative problem solver”.

Shortly after college, I began my career as an Interior designer for a home builder. Within a few years, I became a military spouse and understood that home was where the military sent you and started my family.

About a decade later, while living in Arizona, I became a single mom struggling to raise 3 young kids far from my family in Georgia. They helped me move back home, and ten years later, through family connections, I was blessed to find my current husband. He exposed us to more of the great outdoors—fishing, hunting, and shooting. Little did I know that those first encounters with guns would play a major role in my life story.

My husband encouraged me to learn to shoot and carry for my protection.

But my concealed carry journey stopped when it came to my closet. Unable to find anything to wear (that wasn’t tactical), I became very frustrated. I was very nervous about my firearm showing through my clothing (printing) and being singled out when in public. Empty searches lead me to create clothing to solve my own problems and help others have the confidence to carry on body and be an armed fashionista!

This was the beginning of a clothing line idea, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I came up with a name for my business, Incognito Wear IX®, because, after all, it seemed that most people liked to carry a 9mm pistol.

My animal totem is an owl, symbolic of wisdom. They’re very observant, and well camouflaged (not to mention its silent flight)!

But was this God’s plan for me? I turned to my faith for guidance, direction and clarity.

Many months later, on a beautiful sunny day in December of 2014, I saw a large a big bird flying low, about 30 feet in front of me, where it landed on the trunk of a tree. I pointed to the bird and said to my co-worker, “look at that hawk”.

Suddenly, I realized it wasn’t a hawk, it was an OWL! – about 3 feet from the ground! The owl seemed to come out of nowhere, flying at my eye level (I’m not tall) just making sure I’d see it.

I believe God sent this owl (my symbol for Incognito Wear IX®) and he perched on the side of a tree (on its trunk) and starred at me. It was incredibly awesome and exciting!

In broad daylight, this well camouflaged and silent creature who hunts under the cloak of night, revealed itself to me. The Lord answered my prayer. I received it loud and clear.

With renewed courage and spirit, I bring you Incognito Wear IX®, American Made Concealed Carry Clothing and accessories.

We carry too!

Be armed, incognito and gun chic!

Jan
